Kohlrabi is one of my favorite farmers market purchases; even though I buy it all the time now, it still feels a little special every time I see it at the farmers market. Most people have no idea what kohlrabi is in the first place.…
There’s not much better than biting into freshly fried kohlrabi hash browns. They’re hot; they’re crispy; they’re a perfect way to eat kohlrabi for breakfast. When I first mentioned to my husband how much I liked kohlrabi, he responded that he had the best kohlrabi…
